Chapter 29 - 29 29 Sign Language
29: Chapter 29: Sign Language 29: Chapter 29: Sign Language Liu Lingxiu’s family was just ordinary, incomparable to Su Luoluo’s big family, so she didn’t have the aura of a young lady like Su Luoluo.
However, Ye Qiu thought Liu Lingxiu was prettier than Su Luoluo.
That kind of beauty, from Liu Lingxiu’s eyes, those big eyes revealing pure and innocent gazes, that sweet and confident smile, made Ye Qiu feel very warm whenever he saw it.
Ye Qiu stood there, exchanging a glance with Liu Lingxiu.
Both seemed to have understood something from each other’s eyes.
In class, probably because Liu Lingxiu was mute, she didn’t have many real friends due to the inconvenience of communicating with classmates.
Ordinary communication could only be carried out by writing, which was naturally very troublesome.
As for sign language, the classmates usually only knew some simple signs.
Seeing Ye Qiu standing there looking at Liu Lingxiu, Li Shen pushed him and said, “Ye Qiu, are you stupid?
Don’t you recognize the mute girl?”
Maybe because Liu Lingxiu was mute, although Li Shen and Zhu Zhiming didn’t say anything on the surface, they wouldn’t communicate with her either.
Ye Qiu smiled, looked at Liu Lingxiu in front, and greeted her in sign language.
Ye Qiu knew sign language?
Liu Lingxiu was very surprised!
Because she had just seen Ye Qiu greet her in sign language, and the gestures were very standard, as if he had studied for over ten years!
Liu Lingxiu greeted Ye Qiu and asked in sign language, “Ye Qiu, are you better now?”
Ye Qiu responded in sign language, “Thank you for your concern, I am well now.”
At this moment, Liu Lingxiu could confirm that Ye Qiu really knew sign language!
However, in the past, Ye Qiu didn’t know sign language, nor did he ever greet her in sign language.
The classmates who saw Ye Qiu and Liu Lingxiu communicating in sign language naturally started to mock them.
“Look, that loser is talking to the mute girl.”
“Yeah, that loser really knows sign language?
Look at him making a fool of himself!”
“Isn’t it nice?
A loser and a mute girl, they suit each other well.”
“But the mute girl is really pretty.
It’s a pity she can’t talk; otherwise, I’d want to pursue her.”
“If she could talk, it wouldn’t be your turn!”
…
The classmates talked among themselves, completely ignoring Liu Lingxiu and Ye Qiu’s feelings, and certainly didn’t take them seriously.
Because they knew, although Liu Lingxiu was very pretty, she was still just a mute girl.
After exchanging sign language with Ye Qiu for a while, Liu Lingxiu became happier because she found that Ye Qiu understood what she was saying, knew what she was thinking.
However, as class time approached, Ye Qiu signed to her, “Lingxiu, let’s talk after class.”
Liu Lingxiu smiled and sat down, while Ye Qiu went back to his seat.
Su Luoluo, who was sitting at her seat, naturally saw the whole scene clearly.
She never expected that after Ye Qiu returned, his attitude towards her had completely changed, ignoring her completely.
On the contrary, he was very enthusiastic with the mute girl!
Su Luoluo didn’t know what they were signing, but from their expressions, they seemed very good.
She could tell that Ye Qiu knew sign language.
But she didn’t know when Ye Qiu started learning sign language, or why he hadn’t shown it before.
When Ye Qiu returned to his seat, Su Luoluo scrutinized him, but Ye Qiu didn’t look at her even once, as if she didn’t exist in his eyes.
“Ye Qiu, when did you learn sign language?”
Ye Qiu didn’t answer.
After a while, Su Luoluo asked again, “Hey, what were you talking about with Liu Lingxiu?
You both seemed very happy!”
Ye Qiu still ignored Su Luoluo, his gaze focused on the books on his desk.
Su Luoluo couldn’t believe that after asking several times, Ye Qiu didn’t respond.
She had never encountered such a situation before, especially since this was Ye Qiu, the one who had pursued her, liked her, and even saved her life.
Now, he seemed very cold and indifferent towards her.
“Since you and Liu Lingxiu get along so well, why don’t I ask the teacher to arrange for you to sit together?”
Su Luoluo said casually.
She didn’t know that besides feeling a bit uncomfortable, she was actually feeling a bit jealous without realizing it.
Ye Qiu still didn’t respond.
Of course, he knew that the original Ye Qiu didn’t know sign language and had never learned it.
Now, this new him hadn’t learned it either, but he had absorbed the Soul Consciousness, which included everything about sign language: the meanings, how to use it, and so on.
So, when he saw Liu Lingxiu, he greeted her in sign language.
As for the books on the desk, from first-year to third-year textbooks and reference books, they all looked nearly new because the original Ye Qiu hardly ever made notes in them and rarely opened them.
As for the exam papers, Ye Qiu saw the scores on them.
Out of a possible 150 points, he only scored about 20 to 30.
It was truly dismal.
He couldn’t understand how the original Ye Qiu studied to achieve such scores, no wonder others had a poor impression of him.
Of course, besides poor academic performance, the previous Ye Qiu was always very insecure, timid, and lacked confidence.
He didn’t like communicating with others, so being called a loser, a coward, was very normal to his classmates.
If Ye Qiu was just bad at academics but otherwise ordinary, like Li Shen and the others, he wouldn’t be mocked to such an extent.
But the previous Ye Qiu was far worse compared to Li Shen and the others.
Seeing Ye Qiu staring blankly at the calculus book, Su Luoluo said, “You don’t understand any of it.
There’s no point in looking at it.
With the college entrance exams approaching, even if you want to catch up, there’s not enough time.
It would be better if I ask my family to use their connections to get you into a better university.”
Su Luoluo’s suggestion made sense.
The original Ye Qiu’s total score for all five subjects was below 100 points, not even close to the lowest vocational college cutoff.
And now, with only two months left before the college entrance exams, even if Ye Qiu wanted to start studying again, there was not enough time.
With the Su Family’s connections in Jinling, arranging for Ye Qiu to get into an ordinary bachelor’s program or a good vocational college would be easy.
Su Luoluo’s suggestion was for Ye Qiu’s own good.
But now, after she finished talking, Ye Qiu looked at her coldly, as if he didn’t recognize her at all.
What do you think?
